Boz Scaggs Interviews 1970's
"I have this box full of bits of paper, cocktail napkin scribblings, bits of wisdom. I always look through it before I do an album. In fact, 'silk degrees' was a phrase I'd had around in that box for a long time. Originally I was going to use that name for my second album (Moments)."

Once you enter into the realm of musicians, you're in this other world, and you enter into this unspoken democracy, this little system that means that anything you do - in terms of music - is acceptable."

Boz Scaggs Interviews - 1990's
"I'm very proud when people talk about my style. That's a big thing in an artist's career. I'm always amused when I hear people talking about making a Boz Scaggs record. I myself don't know what that is. I like all kinds of music. People tend to keep you in a certain bag that they liked you in."
